Nosebleed Cauterization in Kids and Aftercare (VIDEO)

A new video has been uploaded describing how silver nitrate cauterization is performed in kids to help stop persistent nosebleeds as well as aftercare required for proper healing. The information also applies to adults as well.

To see how nasal packing is performed for SEVERE nosebleeds, watch the video below. Nasal packing is typically performed in adults and in only rare extreme situations would it ever be performed in a child.
